Is a 280 Rem. rifle a good caliber for hunting whitetail deer in North Carolina?

Yes. I own a Ruger M77 Hawkeye in 280 Rem. It plain levels whitetails out to 200 yds, with a 140 gr. bullet. My only suggestion is that if you don't reload, start. 280 Rem is not as popular as the 270 Win or the 30-06 Sprfld, so ammo is not as readily available.


Which rifle caliber do you prefer for whitetail deer hunting a 243 and a 308 or a 270 and 30-06 Why?

Any of the 4 calibers you listed are more than adequate for deer. The larger calibers will extend the range, but (in my opinion) the range is actually limited by the ability of the hunter. I mainly hunt Eastern Whitetail, and the .243 has less recoil than the others (all other things being equal), but if I were hunting in the Western states, I might prefer a .270 for range and power.

The 17s, whether rimfire or centerfire, are too light for big game. They can be very accurate target rifles, and are used for "varmints"- such as groundhogs, prairie dogs, coyotes, and crows. They can be used for small game hunting, but can be very destructive of meat.
